Many car manufacturers have frequently adopted an aggressive inflator and a lower threshold speed for airbag deployment in order to meet an injury requirement for unbolted occupant at high speed crash test. Consequently, today's occupant safety restraint system has a weakness due to an airbag induced injury at low speed crash event. This paper proposes a new crash algorithm to improve the weakness by suppressing airbag deployment at low speed crash event in case of belted condition. The proposed algorithm consists of two major blocks-crash severity algorithm and deployment logic block. The first block decides crash severity with two levels by means of velocity and crash energy calculation from acceleration signal. The second block implemented by simple AND/OR logic combines the crash severity level and seat belt status information to generate firing commands for airbag and belt pretensioner. Furthermore, it can be extended to adopt additional sensor information from passenger presence detection sensor and safing sensor. A simulation using real crash data for a 1,800cc passenger vehicle has been conducted to verify the performance of proposed algorithm.

The studies of opinion mining or sentiment analysis have been the focus with social web proliferation. Sentiment analysis requires sentiment resources to decide its polarity. In the existing sentiment analysis, they have been built resources designed with intensity of sentiment polarity and decided polarity of opinion using the ones. In this paper, I will present sentiment categories for not only polarity of opinion but also the basis of positive/negative opinion. I will define psychological emotions to primary sentiments for the reasonable classification. And I will extract the informations of sentiment from social web texts for the actual distribution of sentiments in social web. Re-classifying primary sentiments based on extracted sentiment information, I will organize sentiment categories for the social web. In this paper, I will present 23 categories of sentiment by using proposed method.

In this paper, We discuss optical implementation of new optical adaptive patern recognition system based on single layer perception with learning capability and associative memory model having error corrective capability. The single layer perceptron is optically implemented by using 2 D LCTV spatial light modulators through the nonlinear quantization and polarization encoding methods, and 2 D hopfield associative memory is also implemented by using multifocus holographic lens. From some experimental results on classfication of Arabic numbers into even & edd numbers, it is shown that the proposed system can classify the patterns to the right classes correctly even for the partial and erronenous input patterns. Accordingly, the proposed optical adaptive pattern recognition system can be suggested for practical application in the fields of image processing and pattern recognition.

It is extremely lacking and urgently required that the method of constructing the Gene Regulatory Network (GRN) from RNA-Sequencing data (RNA-Seq) because of Big-Data and GRN in Big-Data has obtained substantial observation as the interactions among relevant featured genes and their regulations. We propose newly the computational comparative feature patterns selection method by implementing a minimum-redundancy maximum-relevancy (MRMR) filter the support vector machine-recursive feature elimination (SVM-RFE) with Intensity-dependent normalization (DEGSEQ) as a preprocessor for emphasizing equal preciseness in RNA-seq in Big-Data. We found out the proposed algorithm might be more scalable and convenient because of all libraries in R package and be more improved in terms of the time consuming in Big-Data and minimum-redundancy maximum-relevancy of a set of feature patterns at the same time.

The purpose of this study was to examine the reliability and validity of a Korean form of Childhood Attention Problem(CAP) scale. CAP were administered to 98 normal elementary school students as control group and 98 attention deficit hyperactivity disorder patients. Male students showed high scores than female students in both subscale and total scores, but not statistically significant. There were no significant difference in CAP scale between male students and female students in attention deficit hyperactivity disorder patients. In the reliability test, the test-retest reliability coefficient was highly satisfactory and that of inattention subscale was 0.83, impulsivity subscale was 0.70 and total score was 0.82. In the reliability test by internal consistency, the Cronbach $\alpha$ coefficient was highly satisfactory and that of inattention subscale was 0.91, overactivity subscale was 0.89(p<0.05). The concurrent validity between CAP scale and ADDES-BV scale was 0.85 in attention deficit hyperactivity disorder patient group and 0.73 in normal control group(p<0.05). In discriminant validity test between attention deficit hyperactivity disorder patient group and normal control group, the patient group showed higher score(p<0.05). The total discriminant capacity of the patient group in CAP was 93.4%. In this point of view, CAP scale showed high reliability and validity in applying to Korean subjects and was proved to be the good and simple screening test tool for attention deficit hyperactivity disorder research and can help many young patient to treat early.

Conventional methods for identification of apple cultivars are based on the evaluation of sets of morphological characteristics, however, closely related cultivars often cannot be distinguished by morphological traits. This study was conducted to develop DNA markers for discrimination of the apple cultivars bred in Korea. Thirty random primers generated eighty-three random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) markers from thirty-one Korean bred and introduced apple cultivars. Fifty-two RAPD fragments were cloned and sequenced for conversion into sequence characterized amplified region (SCAR) markers. Among them only seventeen SCAR markers resulted in the amplification of single major bands the same size as the RAPD fragment cloned. Several combinations of six (AN11_433, AN08_566, A408_592, AK17_653, AO04_711, AO04_779 or AW15_368, AN11_433, A408_592, AK17_653, AO04_711, AO04_779, or AL1_427, AN11_433, AN08_566, A408_592, AK17_653, AO04_779) to seven (AL1_427, AN11_433, AN08_566, A408_592, AK17_653, AM16_708, AO04_779 or A330_424, AN11_433, AG14_502, AN08_566, A408_592, AK17_653, AO04_779 or A330_424, AN11_433, AK14_564, A408_592, AK17_653, AM16_708, AT14_789) SCAR markers provided enough polymorphism to identify sixteen Korean apple cultivars among thirty-one tested cultivars. Therefore, application of the seventeen SCAR markers was sufficient to identify the thirty-one tested apple cultivars. These markers could be utilized as a reliable tool for cultivar discrimination of Korean apples.

VMS are installed in many Korean highways in oder to give drivers informations such as travel time to destination, congestion and Incident situation. However, some guidelines for install VMS are restricted in only geometric factors although human factors considering driver behavior are very important to affect the VMS installation. Therefore, this paper are focusing on developing and verifying the discriminant model for VMS installation considering human factors. As a result, following outputs are obtained ; (1) developing the discriminant model using human factors of driving simulation experiments in oder to predict driver reading VMS messages safely detour highway. (2) proving that driving experiences in highway, personal driving history, vehicle speed orderly affects VMS installation (3) verifying predictability of developed model by comparing the real values with predicted values. (4) suggesting that VMS should be installed off 3.2Km from the I.C. of rural highway.
